“The Club that fights Diabetes”

In 1939 twenty-five Prince Albert Businessmen under the guidance of Cosmopolitans in Saskatoon came together to form the Prince Albert Cosmopolitan Club. They focused their energy on helping the youth, taking the motto “It is better to build boys than mend men”.

With that in mind they set up a Boys Camp on land donated at Christopher Lake. The “Cosmos” as they are known locally have created or assisted in many projects in Prince Albert such as the Cosmocade for weekly teen dances, the Prince Albert Playground for kids, Carment Court for seniors, Art Hauser Centre, Mont St. Joseph Home, the Little Red Park ( Cosmo Place ), the YWCA and our biggest and favourite project is the Cosmo Lodge.

We joined with Cosmopolitan International to form the “Cosmopolitan Foundation” which coordinates our funds to focus on finding a cure for Diabetes. Known as “The Club that fights Diabetes” we operate fundraisers such as the Cosmo Home and Leisure Show, the Diabetes FunSpiel curling event, Bingos and share in organizing a Ski Loppet.

We are a Club of 30 business men, teachers and employees, working and retired, who enjoy each others company and with a common desire to give back to our community that has provided us with a great place to live and raise our families.

We meet weekly throughout the Fall, Winter and Spring months in the Cosmopolitan Room of the Prince Albert Golf and Curling Club. We host a Wild Game Supper annually as well as other events in order to encourage Prince Albertans to join us in our endeavors.

We can be reached by mail or at 960-7881.

Two activities that keep us active annually for the past twenty-five years are the Dog Races at the Prince Albert Winter Festival and Camp Tamarack just outside of Prince Albert.

We face weather extremes operating these events from the bitter cold days timing the Dog Mushers in February to building decks and repairing cabins in the heat of the summer at Camp Tamarack.
